🔥 Film Threads Podcast – Episode 1: Firefighters on Film 🔥

Welcome to the very first episode of Film Threads — a brand new podcast spun off from WN Movie Talk, where we pick a topic and then take a look at the films through that lens. This debut episode is all about Firefighters on film — the stories that celebrate heroism, tension, and the heat both literal and emotional. Its a brand new format, kind of a magazine show packed with plenty of content!

Here’s what’s coming up:

• We kick off with a look at the feature film that preceded long-running UK TV classic London’s Burning
• I ask you to test out the TAKE 5 Movie Quiz
• Revisit the disaster movie staple The Towering Infernocin "I Should Have Seen It By Now"
• Dive into the UK Box Office Top Ten from a fiery week in film history linked to this episode
• Explore the emotional impact of firefighting with 2 documentaries from moments in history
• Look at firefighter characters in films not really about firefighting
• And wrap up with the 3 Film Face-Off where we review 3 movies - Only The Brave vs Ladder 49 vs Backdraft – which one takes the crown?

I would love to hear your feedback on this new format - any suggestions you may have for firefighting films that I may have overlooked as well as suggestions for topics we could focus on in future episodes of Film Threads - so get in touch now at wnmovietalk@gmail.com
